Vikings' Zimmer believes Bradford will play again this season

USA TODAY Sports

Sam Bradford won't play in Week 7, but Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer said Friday he expects the quarterback will return this season despite a lingering knee injury, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.

Once again, Case Keenum will get the start Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens in Bradford's stead. Bradford has only played in two games this season, one of which saw him pulled at halftime after clearly looking less than 100 percent healthy.

He has reportedly sought a new treatment in hopes of calming the knee joint. The Vikings have provided no timeline for his return.

Meanwhile, Teddy Bridgewater practiced for the first time in 14 months this week and may be ready to return to game action soon.
